In EndNote, all the keywords for a particular record are contained in a keyword field. Here are the main advantages of Zotero (for me):ġ) Editing of tags (keywords in EndNote) is MUCH easier in Zotero than in EndNote. This facilitates such things as italicizing scientific names in titles of articles. ![]() ![]() There is also some capability of editing reference types, for example, changing the names of fields and the particular fields that are displayed.ģ) EndNote includes the capability of global editing.Ĥ) EndNote includes rich-text formatting in database records as well as bibliographies. Of course one fundamental advantage of Zotero as open source software is that the developers are more responsive to suggestions from users for improvement.ġ) EndNote has a cleaner user interface (others may disagree).Ģ) EndNote includes the option of relatively straightforward modification by users of import filters and output styles. Some of these are strengths of EndNote, others are strengths of Zotero. Many of the basic features of EndNote and Zotero are similar, but here are some key differences. These ideas are based on at least 20 years of experience with four bibliographic databases, most recently EndNote and Zotero. Most of the discussions comparing Zotero and EndNote are rather old, so I’m starting this new one to offer some ideas that I haven’t seen in previous discussions. ![]()
